Trying a Chili Con Carne MRE from Norway
Рет қаралды 23,471
Күн бұрынThe first Arctic Ration I’ve ever tried! Chock full of fruits and soups? The Norway Arctic Ration was the first I've ever had that has required hot water and man it was worth it.
What MRE do you want to see next?

That fruitsoup or Rett i koppen ... its translated to "Straigt to cup" (roughly), it basically is a soup to fit a coffiemug or something like that, you can buy several type of these at stores, easy something to drink while on trip or just between meals.

A couple of tips. On the Chili, there should be a black "fill line" on one side (they used to have, and I've eaten a "few" of those) I think on both the chili and the peach (the dinner for sure) you can split the bottom to make it wider and "standable". And easier to mix the water in. As long as you don't get the Atlantic wolffish dinner, you are more or less good. No amount of rehydration makes the fish anything BUT chewy.

"dL" are deciliters, which is one tenth of a liter. Compared to milliliters which are one thousand's of a liter. So 1 dL = 100 mL. Also the extra zip-lock bag is just for repacking the content of the MRE. We often used them when we packed our rucks, and wanted to limit the weight we brought along. In those cases we did not bring all the content of the MRE pack. At least I've never heard of it being used as a "drink bag".

Haven’t read through all the comments so maybe someone already said this, but this is what we normally buy for hiking/camping trips 😊 The dried fruit is to get your energy/blood-sugar up. The chocolate is, as it said on the packaging, 70% cocoa so it’s less sweet. We even have bars that are up to 85% cocoa and they are really bitter if you’re not used to the taste 😅 but we of course also have the standard milk chocolate with 1000% sugar 😂 I saw someone mentioned the fruit-soup. Add a little less water, put some whipped cream on top and some chopped almonds and you have a killer dessert on a cold evening 😜

The amount of water needed for the fruit soup should be followed - if it felt diluted, it probably was. And no, I do not think it is specific to Norway (as I haven't encountered it in Norwegian society other than the MRE). Personally I can do with or without the soup, but it is good on cold days for sure.

There's a sports/fishing/hunting/hiking outlet store just a 5min drive from me that sells this brand of MREs, haven't tried the chili con carne one yet :) But I'm going to insist on sitting here in Camp Fruit Is Not Soup, thankyouverymuch. Trade for a tea bag and a stale slice of bread or a biscuit or two? Or fetch me some pine shoots? That makes excellent tea/soup, rich in vitamin C, too! And just wanted to point out: The correct way to consume the coffee is when you're woken up at 3:30am, you empty the packet into your mouth, and you take a quick sip of water to flush it down.

I enjoy watching your tastings and hearing the funnies. The Aussie one was also funny as you had a live audience! The civvies that have tasted the world's military rations on KZfaq are so bland.
